[DG] [DG] Instruments and E90 MFD not sharing data and ST6001 SeaTalk Fail

[PDReynolds]

About the same time as a SeaTalk failure with my ST6001, I also noticed a problem with data sharing between my ST60 instruments and between the autopilot and E90’s. Each instrument is functioning on its own, but some if not all data does not seem to be shared between other nodes on the SeaTalk1 bus.

I am looking for any assistance on how to proceed. So far, I have checked all the connections.

I replaced the ST6001 with a new P70S and the autopilot control works.

Here is my setup:
E80 MFD at the helm
E80 MFD at the chart table
SeaTalk HS network switch for each E80
ST60 Tridata for depth and speed
ST60 Wind
Raymarine SeaTalk auxiliary Junction box

S3 Smartpilot Course Computer
P70S Autopilot Control Head (new)

The conditions I have observed are:
On the ST60 Wind Instrument, there is No True wind speed indication - only reading dashed lines. The needle moves fine and shifts when TRUE/APP is selected. Apparent wind speed is OK. Wind Direction is OK for apparent

ST60 Tridata – Depth and speed display fine.

On the E90 there is No wind vector available at the E90. The E90 also is not reading the ST60 alarms (example: low depth alarm). I can no longer acknowledge a depth alarm from the E90. I can, however, set a Goto waypoint on the E90 and track this on the P70S.

On the new P70S, there is no reading of the depth.

I measure approx. 11 volts between the yellow and shield connections. 12 volts on the red to shield.

Attached is a drawing of my setup.
